House For Sale £385,000
If you are looking for a characterful property, quiet village location and countryside views, look no further as we have your perfect home! Situated in the quaint Peak District village of Bonsall, is this fantastic 3 bedroom detached stone built cottage. Formerly two cottages, now converted into one large cottage, the current owners have sympathetically renovated this characterful cottage throughout. With quality fixtures, fittings and retaining period features, this one must just be viewed to fully appreciate not only the spacious and cosy home this has now become, but also the breath-taking views from the gardens.
General Information
Bonsall is an attractive, historic former lead-mining village set in steep-sided converging limestone dales. Sitting on the edge of the Peak District just 2 miles south-east of Matlock, the village is on the Limestone Way footpath and the area is excellent for walkers. A 3.7 mile circular walk takes in Bonsall, Matlock Bath and Cromford. The lower dale along the Via Gellia road has some glorious woodland, a haven for wildlife and flora - look out for Kingfishers near the millpond!
The current owners really like the community feel the village has. Gardening allotments are available relatively frequently for local residents with an interest in living the 'Good Life'. Local schools are well thought of and the annual village carnival is enjoyed by all. Two local village pubs offer social engagement, offer food and even home the eccentric annual Bonsall Hen Race!
